Guys.check this video.its latest one date 1 sep 2019..jio set top with all channels playing via jio tv app installed within the set top box itself.also no price of any individual channel is mentioned ..so it means trai rule wont follow here

But there will be 2types of stbs one without cable coaxial connector and one with it ....trai rules will apply to the lco cable stb provided by jio

 

[abhishjha]

Yes.so i think they will bundle iptv service along with broadband service.and for those who only need tv service.they will get it by the lco who will give via their coaxial cable that will be inserted in the set top box..so trai rules will apply there and they will have to pay for the channels and choose..but for those who need broadband.they will get iptv service bundled with that..this is what i assume will happen..

Jiotv would have to consume account bandwidth otherwise it would be violation of net neutrality. Of course... Jio can get the regulations twisted like they have done since before its existence.

 

[abhishjha]

But jio employess have clearly told that the data consumed for watching contents frm jio owned apps such as jio tv or jio cinema will not be counted in the billing

 

[Sushubh]

It would violate Trai regulations. So remains to be seen.

 

[Smh]

if apps on tv are only accessible with jio network like iptv so it won't violate net neutrality right ?

Channel price rules apply both to IPTV and DTH ?
